Stronger Together. Always Independent.

Increase Your Income, Not Your Workload.

Increase Your Revenue Through Quality Clinical Care

Dentists should be able to compete on the quality of their care, and keep their practice.

Doctors who commit to clinical excellence should operate within an economic system that recognizes the value of that care. Better dentistry means more durable treatment, better patient outcomes and less unnecessary retreatment — and DentalLink IPA IPA built a model where clinical excellence becomes part of the economic conversation.

Better Care. Better Outcomes. A Stronger Future for Dentistry.

As an office manager of a busy & growing office, I can confidently say that partnering with our IPA has been an incredible resource for our practice. They have helped us with everything from credentialing and negotiating better insurance fees to keeping us informed on insurance updates, providing valuable discounts, and so much more.

Their support has allowed us to strengthen our insurance relationships, expand our patient base, and continue growing our practice. One of the added benefits has been the opportunity to connect and network with other local dental offices, share resources, and build relationships within our dental community.

We truly value the support, knowledge, and opportunities our IPA provides and are grateful to have them as a partner in the continued growth of our practice.

…they found great vendors that saved us money on ordering, merchant services, insurance negotiations, and credentialing.

We have been working with DentalLink IPA since 2015, and they have been an incredible asset to our practice.

One of the things we appreciate most about them is how much they respect our history. When looking for ways to cut costs, they didn't just force new vendors on us. They took our current vendor relationships into account and evaluated every option with our existing ties in mind. In the end, they found great vendors that saved us money on ordering, merchant services, insurance negotiations, and credentialing.

Beyond administrative savings, their ongoing operational support is exceptional. They have seamlessly helped with the credentialing of our new doctors and provided highly strategic insurance contracting recommendations that protected our practice's revenue.

If you want a partner who listens to your needs, respects your existing business relationships, and saves you money, we can't recommend DentalLink IPA enough.

Utilizing and partnering with this IPA was a game changer for our office. From an administrative standpoint, the credentialing process was completely seamless, saving our front desk countless hours of paperwork. In addition to securing top-notch negotiated fee schedules, their support team is exceptionally quick and efficient whenever I have an inquiry. Furthermore, their knowledge base is outstanding; they provide ongoing education and operational support that gives me the exact tools I need to succeed in my position. Making the switch has been a major win for our organization.
